im underpaid :

ONLY time I've preferred the movie cover and specifically ordered this one

Ethan/Deacon🪐 :

the ONLY exception is project hail mary they knew what the fuck they were doing with that one

Joglis Illustration :

The only tie in cover that I like is the Heartstopper one just because they recreated the original cover

theonlyzed :

I hate even more when the cover of my digital version is updated to the movie version

ficaddict98 :

I SWEAR I saw someone that had bought copy of Project Hail Mary (I think it was hardcover and in Spanish) that had the movie cover, but only as a sleeve and it unfolded into a small poster, with the original cover underneath. This is the correct solution and I need it in mass market immediately 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

LOUDEST REPOST EVER

Shadowess15 :

If my book ever gets published and made into a movie, it'll be my absolute requirment to not do that.

🤍✨️ :

i hate it more when its a show and the show isnt even accurate to the book. the show is SO different ot the book. so why tf would you put the show cover on book??? an example (the only one in mind right now), the 100.

BigSkyWoodsmith :

"Stickers" that are printed as part of the cover 🤬

Oskar • Alex :

I like the PHM one but thats it, because i dont like the original cover. The vibes feel wrong on it idk

ACWrites 📚 :

book cover: art. movie cover: ad.

🩷🤍🧡Lettuce🩷🤍🧡 :

I just read the Martian for the first time a week ago thankfully I have the pretty version 😭 I refused to buy the one with his face. I got the pretty version of Hail Mary as well.

Artblockedbyme :

This is me with YOU like oh my god get him off there

Muchiko0o :

I agree overall except with DRIVE the book. But I am deeply biased on it cause I liked the movie a lot more than the book 😅

📼👁️Lan Xichens husband🚦🏜️ :

books should have book covers!!!!😭😭 my friend got me the original cover hardback of project hail Mary and wow it is so much nicer than the films!!!

Alana :

The only time I've seen it done properly was the one edition of Project Hail Mary. Movie cover is a book jacket that unfolds into a poster with the original book cover underneath.

triskellionquinn 🇨🇦 🏳️‍🌈 :

I don’t want to see real people I recognize on my book covers 😑 I read books to get AWAY from real people and celebrities

~fantom~ :

YES and I hate when the actor is on the front. It’s not even about physical differences, it’s just that I want to picture the characters, not the actors

Rat the Disagreeable they/them :

I know we arent meant to judge a book by the cover, but the cover should give me a vibe of the story and a lot of movie posters dont really do that anymore

Quinn🧭 :

YES. I wouldn't mind if the cover was adjusted to be more cohesive in color to the movie but just slapping the movie poster with the actor's faces on it is so ugly and lazy

ane2120 :

also some movie adaptations are not the same thing as the book.

R.MorningSky🇨🇦 :

glaring at 'the 100' book series on my shelf because they have the tv show cover. yea, I get it.

Jayy 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 :

I love the movie, but I am so glad I got the book cover of Project Hail Mary. I do not want Ryan Gosling on my book cover, because he's not in the book!

brotherhoodofevilgays :

Årenee :

I hate when I buy an audiobook with the original cover and THEY CHANGE IT WHEN THE MOVIE COMES OUT. i live Ryan gosling but I dont want to stare at his face everytime I want to listen to my favorite book.
